OMG I love the idea of croquembouche!
I came very close to buying a central cone to make it for the Staff Room when I was at school. One of the few times I actually reined myself in...

Congratulations, you're doing marvellously.

PS I should have known that boy wasn't yours.
Not handsome enough.

I have done some gf baking before. This time i need to be very strict though, so sourcing gf chocolate as well. With the mudcake, gf is not too much of an issue because its meant to be dense anyway. The profiteroles might be trickier, but i think there will be a way.

Happy ANZAC Ali.

Thanks Bruce. Xx

I did this cake yesterday/this morning. It's choc mud with a ganache filling. I will be paid $50 for this one.

Do you and the kids get to eat the shoulder cut outs?

Clodfobble · 04-26-2014, 07:23 AM

I'm really glad to see how well your business is taking off, Ali. You make beautiful cakes.

Aliantha · 04-26-2014, 11:34 PM

Thanks Clod.

. I have been really surprised by how quickly it has happened. And very grateful for all the support too.

Aliantha · 04-26-2014, 11:35 PM

No one ate them bruce. They are all sick of cake. Haha

I guess that's a danger of the business. Congrats on the success though.

Marie Antoinette didn't care... but she kind of lost her head.

Pauvre petite was misquoted.

But it's true her whole protected upbringing could never give her an understanding of what it was like to live and starve on the streets. Unlike the elected representatives of today of course.
